I just got 3 toulouse geese 2 days ago and they are very scared of me, This is the first time I get them at this age, when I use to have african geese they were only a day old and 3 days old & not affraid at all of me,

I am spending time with them sweet talking to them and offering some bread hoping they will soon get to trust me and come around
I have not let them outside yet as I am not to sure if they will run scared & that I won't be able to catch them to put them back in their safe little barn until we can finish up the yard with the fence so looking forward to seeing them outside enjoying themself's with our little pond that we have in our yard...lol

Quote:I have one white chinese who I bought at an auction around at about 4 weeks of age. It was scared to death of me but is now the second one to come to visit (after the one in the front of the pic). The chinese still won't let me touch it but at least it gets close and doesn't run away. But I don't give treats, I'm sure that would have helped
